[QUOTE="BoatDawg4120, post: 363379, member: 9832"] Sorry for the split post but my browser logs me out if I dont post within a certain amount of time. Anyways.... Back to the boat. The 86 Sea Nymph FM171 had the option for a 60 or 90hp motor. The FM161 that I now own could be purchased with the 30 or 60hp engine. I have a 85hp chrysler with all controls and is turn key that I will be placing on the boat. I know it is a little overpowered but smart driving and knowing the dangers of irresponsible boat driving I should be ok. Should I ever sell it I will be placing a 1971 Thunderbolt 500 Merc on it. Just for piece of mind. I will add the pics I have of the boat. Side consol and driver seat came with it. I have 2 20gal aluminum fuel cells that I will be putting on the boat. Transom core will be replaced and reinforced. Deck will be original at first but later on down the road I will be raising the front deck in front of the livewell and adding a rear casting deck that will also house more storage and the two aluminum fuel cells. I am PUMPED!!!! Cant wait to get it done and post the pics. I will be on here and there to update where the build stands and upload progression photos. [/QUOTE]
